Detailed Solution

Given, 3 sin θ + 4 cos θ = 5

Squaring both sides, we get:
⇒ (3 sin θ + 4 cos θ)2 = 25 

⇒ 9 sin2θ + 16 cos2θ + 24sinθcos θ = 25

⇒ 9(1 – cos2θ) + 16 (1 – sin2θ) + 24sinθcosθ = 25 ... (As , sin2θ + cos2θ = 1)
⇒ 9 – 9cos2θ + 16 – 16sin2θ + 24sinθcosθ = 25
⇒ 9cos2θ + 16sin2θ – 24 sin θ cos θ = 0
⇒ (3 cos θ – 4 sin θ)2 = 0 

⇒ 3 cos θ – 4 sin θ = 0.
